Wildlife at Yellowstone National Park

The wildlife at Yellowstone is awesome and being able to see some of it was a wonderful opportunity.

This elk decided that the grass was better in the campground. She was having dinner in the common area of Madison Campground, this was our first night of camping and our first close encounter with a wild animal. We were on our way to the store to get our dinner when we saw her so I had to stop and take a few photos.

Here is our first Buffalo sighting. We were on the way to West Yellowstone City in Montana when we came around a corner to see traffic stopped and wondered why? Then we saw the Buffalo starting to come up the bank and cross the road. The cameras were flying, it was awesome.

Here is one of the Buffalo from the above group. Once it had crossed the road we were able to drive right beside him and take a photo. Say "Cheese"

The next morning we left our campground, turn left, and there were more Buffalo, everywhere.

This guy was just taking a stroll down the road. I took a photo as we drove by.

Same with this guy, just strolling (Rawhide song plays in my mind)

Here is a gorgeous shot that Rick was able to get of a Elk.

And we saw a couple of  big horned sheep, photo is bad, but we did get to see them up high on a hill.
